Chapter 6: Finally Improved
"Mother Pang, this snack?"
"Children love to eat nuts, so when you spread nuts on your pastries, you can do good things. However, the two young ladies were less than three years old, and children of this age could only eat crushed nuts, because whole nuts were very easy to choke or choke on. Punish you with another month's money and food, do you want to cry out for injustice? ”
"Not wronged, not wronged." Wen Gushan and the stewards were unable to make any more excuses, and bowed their heads and accepted punishment.
"Wen Gushan, as the kitchen manager, is careless and derelict in his supervisory duties, and will you be fined a month's worth of money and food, will you serve?"
"Yes."
"That's good, do things carefully in the future, don't rely on the old and sell the old, always use some old experience to fool people, the kitchen manager and steward are not in a position where you can sit back and relax, the patience of the masters is limited, don't do stupid things that you regret."
Wen Gushan and the stewards' bodies shook suddenly, and they didn't even dare to say it.
After the deterrence, Pang's mother walked away proudly.
Wen Gushan straightened his waist, and his cannibalistic gaze swept over the faces of the four stewards, and Bai Ko hurriedly pulled Lu Doudou out of the corner door and went to the mezzanine to rest.
The two of them came out, and without saying a word, a few more boys and girls came out, patting their chests with frightened expressions.
"It's so scary, it's the first time I've seen Mr. Wen like that!" A fat man named Ma Weiwu from another school stuck out his tongue, he was the largest among the apprentices, and his strength was not small.
Bai Ko and they nodded in unison, Wen Gushan has always been a smiling Maitreya Buddha, where have you seen him so angry today.
"But it's no wonder that the stewards are careless, and he, the general manager, must be implicated, and it is indeed his negligence in supervision, and he was not punished wrong." Shi Ping, a young man from the same school as Bai Ko, said indifferently.
"But one deduction is a month's worth of money and food, and the stewards have also deducted it for two months." Wanqiu shrunk her shoulders with an expression that she didn't know what to say.
"Fortunately, today is the young lady and grandchildren who are entertaining their own family, if this kind of problem occurs at the banquet, how embarrassed will the eldest lord and eldest lady be? Swallowed alive and stripped everyone's hearts. Bai Ko added secretly.
The apprentices nodded in unison, "That's right! ”
A handyman suddenly appeared inside the corner gate and beckoned to the apprentices to come in and work.
"Manager Wen took the stewards elsewhere, hurry up and come to work, don't provoke you to turn around and be scolded by the stewards."
Everyone hurriedly silenced and went to the well to wash vegetables, and no one dared to talk about what had just happened.
A little later, Wen Gushan took the frustrated four stewards back to the kitchen to cook, and the stewards' anger was vented on the cooks and cooks below.
The cooks and the ladies were scolded by the stewards, and when they came out, they found apprentices and handymen to vent their anger, and no one dared to fight back, so they all lowered their heads and let them scold.
The bad atmosphere lasted until the end of the supper, when the apprentices were picked at the bones of the eggs, punished for not being allowed to eat supper, all working hungry, and standing in the courtyard when they had no work to do, not to go away and not to drink.
After supper, the apprentice and the handyman cleaned the kitchen together, and finally dragged their sore legs back to the squatter to rest.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to relieve himself, Lu Doudou finally had time to be alone with Bai Ko.
"Bai Ko, you say, is this a success or a failure today?" Lu Doudou asked in Bai Ko's ear with a subtle breath.
"I don't know." Bai Ko said honestly, "But that Pang mother used my original words, presumably the little brother yesterday had told me in advance." ”
"That should be considered a success, right?"
"But it's all bad for the chief and the stewards, I reported so many nut snacks yesterday, and I didn't make any of them."
"That'...... Or a failure? Lu Doudou's nose was sour, and he wanted to cry, "I really don't want to compare basic skills anymore." ”
"I'll see tomorrow. Whether there are new opportunities, we will know in a few days. ”
The two of them came out of the hut, hastily freshened up, climbed up to the bunk, rolled up the thin quilt tightly, and lay down for a while before falling into a deep sleep.
The next day, before dawn, everyone got up one after another, to prepare for breakfast, and then the formal cooks and cooks came to wash their hands and work, and after more than half an hour, the girls from each room and courtyard came to get breakfast on time.
After this first wave, the sky is already bright and the sun is rising.
The warehouse sent today's ingredients, Wen Gushan was responsible for ordering, arranging various dishes for lunch, and then picking out the required ingredients, and the apprentices and handymen hurriedly swallowed a few steamed buns, carrying a basket of ingredients to the well to divide the work and clean up.
This is busy, Pang's mother is here again, and everyone in the kitchen hurriedly lined up according to the level and listened to Pang's mother's lecture.
"Fortunately, yesterday was a family banquet in this house, and the shame was also lost at home, but the eldest lady was very unhappy about this, thinking of the big banquet that would be held at home in the near future, and she was worried about the current level of the kitchen."
Pang's mother swept her eyes, and the chief stewards and stewards standing at the front all lowered their heads, beating the drum desperately in their hearts.
"Considering that the house has been filial piety for three years and has never held any banquets, the kitchen is afraid that it is not so familiar with the current fashionable dishes, since the house has bought some new apprentices, it is better to test the cooking skills of the apprentices and take some new dishes in the market to open everyone's eyes."
Wen Gushan and the stewards raised their heads in astonishment, the cooks and cooks of the first to third ranks were whispering, and the apprentices standing at the end were already excited.
"Mother Pang, did the eldest lady specify what to cook for the apprentices?"
"Mr. Wen, what do you have to say? Is it to specify the dishes or to let them play freely? ”
"It's all right, it's all up to the eldest lady."
"Don't worry, let the apprentices practice on the stove first, I heard that I haven't touched the stove for two months? What the hell do you do? Afraid that a newcomer will steal your place? ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." Wen Gushan's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Pang's mother threw down a reproachful look, turned around and left.
Wen Gushan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, felt that his position as the chief steward shook a little, and the eyes of the four stewards under him were not good again.
If he is removed, he will most likely be replaced by these four stewards.
Huang Dahai and the four of them were inexplicably glared at by Wen Gushan again, but they were not as scared as yesterday, but sneered in their hearts, a little gloating, wishing that he would make another mistake and be pulled down in advance, so they didn't have to wait for next year's promotion competition.
After Pang's mother left, everyone continued to work, there were many people in the kitchen courtyard, Lu Doudou and Bai Ko sat together to wash vegetables, exchanging eyes that only the two of them could understand, and then turned their heads to discuss the new assessment method with everyone, guessing whether it was a designated dish or free play.
There are many people who tend to specify dishes, proposition assessments, and have a month to practice to be proficient.
Of course, Bai Ko hopes that it is best to play freely, Pang's mother just said very clearly, the house has been filial piety for three years, temporarily retired from the social circle, at most, the daughters go back to their parents' house to visit their parents, and have a light meal by the way, the cooks' skills may have lagged behind the chefs of Beppu, for the next various banquets, the house is in great need of new dishes.
That's the opportunity for apprentices.
